SYMPTOMS
========
It has been reported that HIMEM.SYS locks the Hyundai 286c keyboard.
NOTE: It has also been reported that this switch setting works correctly on the
Hyundai 286b.
CAUSE
=====
HIMEM.SYS is installing the wrong handle for this type of machine. Using the
/m:<number> switch, documented in the README.TXT, allows HIMEM.SYS to
change the handle installed. Changing the handle to #7 corrects the
keyboard-locking problem.
The following is a sample HIMEM.SYS line for CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE=c:\himem.sys /m:7
